Appeal denied by EDD - what to expect when talking to an agent?

I found a way to solve denied unemployment appeal issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skyZZ1vM8Y4

Ugh, that sucks. I've been there before. When you talk to an agent, make sure you have all your documents ready. They'll probably ask you why you think the denial was wrong. Be prepared to explain your situation clearly and calmly.

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Make sure you appeal within the deadline! I missed mine by one day and they wouldn't even consider it. Learn from my mistake 😭

Here's what you need to know about the appeal process: • First, gather all relevant documents: pay stubs, termination letter, any communication with your employer. • Write a clear, concise letter explaining why you believe the denial was incorrect. • Include any new information that wasn't in your original claim. • Be prepared for a hearing. You might need to testify and present evidence. • Consider getting legal help. Some non-profits offer free assistance with unemployment appeals. • Stay patient. The process can be slow, but don't give up! Remember, many appeals are successful. Good luck!

have you tried calling your local representatives office? sometimes they can help speed things up
